I should clarify: my assumption is that *most* atheists were raised religious, so in that case, the question is about your *former* religion

Well, as a non-theistic Pagan (atheist with a religion), there are some real wack-jobs in the new age movement. (And in the reconstructionist movement, but not as many or as noticeable.)
I think the worst was some form of the "Quantum theory of magic." Where everything is connected, and through concentration, symbolism and belief a person can defy the laws of nature and supernaturally achieve some kind of effect. Utter B/S.

I think praying to a specific God because you want a specific thing (I'm a former Hindu) is a pretty absurd idea.
It seems there's a lot of bureaucracy among the Hindu Gods. They all have different jobs and if you ask the wrong one for something it'll never get done.
It's too bad I'm not a former pagan, because "Quantum Magic" (Tawaen's reply) is pretty absurd.

As a male, I hate shirts that is scratchy and can't even take in sweat. that is purely like donning plastic. I additionally hate maximum denims because of the fact they're so tight, heavy, uncomfortable, and restrict my circulate. extremely while i exploit tight belt too, every time I somewhat have flatulence or diarrhea, the effect will become greater advantageous :(

I have found nothing absurd in Christianity, except when someone gets something WAY out of context or makes an application that should not be.

Never had a religion, I was born an Atheist and saw no reason to change.

I'm a Christian and religion and atheism are absurd.

That some people refuse to believe in God. I mean, He's so totally obvious, I can't understand why anyone would refuse to believe.

When I was in a pentecostal church, they tried to convince us that salvation could be lost.
WRONG......
Salvation cannnot be lost. I now attend a Baptist church....where the truth is preached.
